So I waited over 20 hours and more importantly I waited till I was pretty sick. I started dosing 2mg suboxones. I did my first one and felt nothing after 45 minutes. I took more, 2mg at a time, till the total of 8mg. After the last one I took a shower and was feeling worse.
About one hour after taking the last 2mg suboxone I got the worst withdrawal of my life, I clearly put myself into precipitated withdrawl. I was puking, it was horiable. I called my guy and got H (ECP), I did a lot and felt a little relief, I took more and more. I ended up taking what would be normal about 2 days worth within an hour. I didn't get a rush and I don't feel high. That was about 2 hours ago. I don't feel high, I don't feel sick, but could feel better, my pupils are normal size.
Could some one explain what is going on right now. Have I inducted to suboxone and just have H floating around? can I continue with the Suboxone? do I need to wait anther 24 hours till I feel very sick to try again?
I have plenty of Suboxone and just want to get back on that and off the H but it seems to be so hard for me. any suggestions on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated. I have done tons of searches and read just about every thread that relates to this but can't seem to find an answer.
So my questions are what is going on in my brain right now? why don't I feel well? and most importantly what is my best course of action to get back on the suboxone from where I am right now?
Thank you.
 
You've gone into precipitated withdrawal and the H has just evened you out a bit. I had a very big habit and because of this it happened to me too and I did the same as you. You probably have big tolerance like me so you need to wait as long as you can before you have your next dose of sub. Don't use anymore H before then but save a very small amount to have 2 hours after you have your sub tomorrow. Try having 2-4mg of sub tomorrow and wait 2 hours and see how you feel. If you feel like crap again after 2hours then have the little bit of H you saved. Then the next day wait as long as you can and then have 4 mg. by this time the sub will have built up in you and you'll feel good again. This is what I did and it worked for me.
Good luck.
 
Most likely precipitated withdrawal. What I do to try to avoid this is I take my last dose of heroin in the morning that way I won't be feeling sick until late that night, but will still be able to get to sleep. Then I try to sleep as late as possible the next day to try to make past 24 hours before taking a sub. Next time take 2mg at first, but wait a bit longer before re-dosing than you had the last time. Good luck.
 
Thank you for responding. Here is what I have done:
Last night I took 2 more mg of sub about 6 hours after what I described, It didn't do much of anything and I went t sleep. I slept for about 4 hours then woke up, the only symptom I was having was hot flashes and night sweating but I stayed in bed all night not sleeping. I waited as long as I could, 24 hours had past since I took the H and I took 2mg of suboxone, It didn't make me well, It might have made me a tiny bit sicker but It is really hard to tell. I am getting H now and I am going to save some for tomorrow as you said. I am determined to get back on the suboxone, it is just so difficult being sick and having to work. I am hoping all the sub I did yester day, plus today will have helped it buid up in my system so It works tomorrow, I will wait over 24 hours until I am very very sick tomorrow and take 2mg and wait much longer till I redose.
It was definitely precipitated withdrawal, It was the most sick I have ever been. I have been that sick before, but It has never come on that fast like that.
Thank you again
